Good question. Unfortunately, you may not like my answer so much.
The functionality you want exists, in the form of the `-b' switch.
Specifically, this is what I've been using lately:
h2xs -AXn Foo-Bar -b 5.5.3
The problem is that this switch was added in early June 2000
, too late for 5.6.0. It has been integrated into the 5.6.1 track.
Your options are (in no particular order):
- Get Perl 5.7.0 or an even newer version of the development track
- Wait for 5.6.1, which should be RSN.
- Integrate that patch into your version of h2xs
- Manually delete the "require 5.005_xx", change "use warnings" to "-w", and
all `our' vars to `use vars' in every module you create
- Use the 5.00503 version of h2xs
